Worldwide markets are poised to achieve significant growth as law enforcement
and companies get more businesses test for substance abuse.

Alcohol abuse and drug abuse represent a significant danger to society. Most
users represent that the choice to be a user is a personal choice, but this is
not the case. The reality is that drug and alcohol users kill people as they
get behind a wheel and drive and as they let anger boil over into killing rage.

Not all users are killers surely, but there is a need for society to control
abuse for the common good. These controls are likely to be put more in place
going forward as the dangers are more commonly recognized and as the ability
to detect users becomes more available at an affordable price.

The drug testing segment starts out as a low 29% percent of the drug and
alcohol abuse detection market in 2013 and grows to be 66% of the market by
2020 responding in part to the sheer danger of the heroin drugs. The
terrorists have promised to be flooding the US with opiates and heroin,
wrecking the country from the inside. This is a tremendous danger, cheap
heroin. The drug testing represents a deterrent as significant as military
deterrent or more so to protect the citizens from direct attack.

Alternatives to bars are emerging. Sports clubs have sprung up all over,
creating clubs where people can meet and interact without going to a bar. The
fact that alternative socialization venues exist is making it easier to
enforce laws against drinking and driving. Alcohol related accidents kill
someone every 31 minutes and injure someone every 2 minutes in the US.

Alcohol and drugs cause serious disruption to the workforce when present among
employees. Breath and saliva contain markers that can be used to monitor
alcohol abuse, drug abuse, and the health status of patients.

In the U.S. nearly half of road accidents are estimated to occur due to
excessive alcohol consumption and drug abuse. Similarly, the number of deaths
soared by 26% in Britain due to drunk driving in 2012. Thus, alcohol
enforcements remain a priority for governments across the globe. Governments
of various countries are strictly enforcing safety laws and are heavily
emphasizing on work safety issues. Moreover, they are compelling
organizations, vehicle owners and others to install portable breath analyzers
at their work places.

In the global breath analysis market, the fuel cell technology segment
accounted for the largest share and is anticipated to lead the market during
the forecast period. The growth in this segment is attributed to technology
efficiency, accuracy and the increasing popularity of breath testing devices.

The alcohol testing segment accounted for the largest share of the market
owing to the rising trend of road accidents and other causalities due to
excessive alcohol consumption. The tuberculosis detection market is
anticipated to show highest growth of 44.7% from 2013 to 2019. The growth in
this segment is attributed to increasing incidence of tuberculosis especially
in developing countries and increasing demand for a non-invasive surgery and
accurate screening tool.

Law enforcement use of breathalyzers is helping decrease the number of
accidents.

Alcohol plays an important and integral part in every society. Not all alcohol
usage is problematic, but alcohol abuse is prevalent and becoming more
recognized as a law enforcement, work, and health issue. Alcohol remains the
most abused drug in history. In the United States, alcohol plays a part in
half the automobile fatalities and nearly half of all industrial accidents.
For employers, alcohol abuse accounts for two thirds of all substance abuse
complaints and depletes a similar percentage from the health care benefit
budgets of American companies.

Law enforcement use of breathalyzers relates to increasing awareness that
there is a responsibility by society to control the use of alcohol and drugs
when their use may result in injury or death to others. The breathalyzer
introduces a way to control measurement of suspected users in an unobtrusive,
fair manner.

According to Susan Eustis, lead author of the WinterGreen Research team
that prepared the study, “In the U.S. nearly half of road accidents are
estimated to occur due to excessive alcohol consumption and drug abuse.
Similarly, the number of deaths soared by 26% in Britain due to drunk driving
in 2013. Thus, alcohol enforcements remain a priority for governments across
the globe. Governments of various countries are strictly enforcing safety laws
and are heavily emphasizing on work safety issues.”

Ms Eustis continued, “There are the issues of increased absenteeism and
sickness, more frequent lateness for work, and increased risk of theft of
property and cash from the company and other staff. Each of these carries a
cost.”

Consideration of Breath Analyzer, Saliva Testers, and Biosensor Market
Forecasts indicates that markets at $699 million will reach $7 billion by
2020. Growth comes as businesses and law enforcement agencies crack down on
abuse of alcohol and drugs.
